Overview

Affordable and fun, with deeper tone and better sustain thanks to special bracing.

The Yamaha FG830 dreadnought acoustic guitar delivers impressive sound in a classic package. With its solid Sitka spruce top and rosewood back and sides, this full-size dreadnought produces bright, rich tones with excellent projection. Yamaha specially developed the FG830's scalloped bracing pattern to bring out more low-midrange sound for balanced resonance across the tonal spectrum. Combined with its comfortable nato neck and rosewood fingerboard, the FG830 offers incredible playability to match its versatile voice. The traditional dreadnought body provides a timeless look and balanced, projecting tone perfect for rhythm playing or soloing. With the FG830, Yamaha has crafted a remarkable instrument that feels and sounds fantastic.

Project Your Sound With a Spruce Top

The FG830's Sitka spruce top contributes greatly to its impressive tone. Spruce is prized for its strong, clear sound with bright overtones and excellent resonance. These qualities make it perfect for rhythm playing, where you want each strum to ring out with clarity and presence. When soloing, the FG830's spruce top highlights the unique character of each individual note. Its solid wood construction provides greater volume and sustain compared to laminate tops.

Rosewood Back and Sides Add Richness and Depth

Complementing the FG830's solid spruce top are back and sides made of beautiful rosewood. Known for its rich, complex overtones, rosewood adds warmth while enhancing the guitar's overall sustain. This greater resonance allows each chord or melody note to sing with more fullness and depth. The rosewood's dark, luxurious appearance is visually striking as well. Together with the spruce top, the FG830's rosewood back and sides create a guitar with exceptional tonal balance and character.

Scalloped Bracing Brings Out the Lows and Mids

Through extensive analysis, Yamaha developed an innovative scalloped bracing pattern that improves the FG830's sound. Scalloping lightens the bracing structure while maintaining strength and stability. This allows the guitar top more freedom of vibration, increasing sustain and projection. Yamaha's unique bracing design brings out more low-midrange tones, resulting in a rich, well-balanced voice across the tonal range. From thundering lows to singing highs, the FG830's smart bracing helps it deliver exceptional acoustic tone.

Smooth Playability With Nato Neck and Rosewood Fingerboard

The FG830's nato neck provides a smooth, comfortable playing feel. Its rosewood fingerboard complements the back and side wood, offering silky playability with pleasing visual appeal. The 25.6" scale length and 1.69" nut width give you ample room for fretting chords and soloing while remaining accessible and comfortable. Whether you're just starting out or a seasoned player, you'll appreciate how the FG830 excels in both sound and playability.

Timeless Style in a Dreadnought Body

With its traditional dreadnought body shape, the FG830 conjures the classic acoustic guitar vibe. The dreadnought's large body produces a bold, balanced tone with excellent projection perfect for both accompaniment and taking the lead. Its stylish gloss finish and decorated soundhole add a touch of elegance. Offering tremendous versatility for any genre along with timeless appeal, the FG830 is an acoustic you'll treasure for years to come.
